Palm Beach County Big Pharma Lawsuit

At
The Ferraro Law Firm, we believe in doing what is right, no matter what. Our entire firm is
committed to providing effective, winning legal representation for people
harmed through no fault of their own and holding others responsible for
their injurious, negligent behavior.

going after approximately 29 major pharmaceutical companies whose negligence
and willful blindness to the effects of their medications have cost the
county countless sums of money and fueled the opioid epidemic in South
Florida. Our firm is dedicated to providing the county with wise legal
counsel, strong representation, and positive solutions for addressing
the area’s opioid crisis.

Our Florida Trial Attorneys Come to Win on Behalf of Palm Beach County
and its Citizens

At the Ferraro Law Firm, our legal team is weighing in on the pharmaceutical
companies’ role in fostering the explosive and ever-growing opioid
crisis in Palm Beach County. In a recent statement to the press, Attorney
Janpaul Portal said, “The[se pharmaceutical companies] are all responsible
because each one of them played a significant role,” going on to
explain that, “Each one of them chose to look the other way while
earning billions of dollars at the cost of Palm Beach County’s taxpayers.”

Our firm has a strong team of tough and experienced litigators who are
committed to furthering the county’s interests with zeal, tenacity,
skill, and positive solutions. We are also committed to winning this case
on behalf of all Palm Beach County taxpayers, who are directly (and negatively)
affected by the consequences of the opioid crisis, which include increased
homelessness, healthcare needs, foster care, unemployment and disability
benefits and more.

Our firm is confident that this victory will help the county recover economic
damages caused by the named pharmaceutical companies. These funds will
then go toward education about opioids and treatment for people suffering
from addiction and opioid abuse. It will also go toward resources and
tools for medical professionals and first responders who are working with
opioid-addicted citizens day in and day out.

We are prepared to take up the cause of other Florida municipalities seeking
to right the wrongs committed by big pharmaceutical companies. Call (888) 554-2030
to speak to a Florida opioid attorney and trial lawyer today.
